v.

Phillip Thomas Hullett,        Appellant.

Appeal From York County
Lee S. Alford, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2004-UP-245
Submitted February 23, 2004 � Filed April 15, 2004

APPEAL DISMISSED

Senior Assistant Appellate Defender Wanda H. Haile, Office of Appellate Defense, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Charles H. Richardson, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Thomas E. Pope, of York, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:� Phillip Thomas Hullett appeals the circuit court�s denial of his request for a bond pending appeal of his conviction for a trafficking powder cocaine, distribution of marijuana, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, and distribution of marijuana.� Hullett�s appellate counsel has petitioned to be relieved as counsel, stating she has reviewed the record and concluded Hullett�s appeal is without merit.� The sole issue briefed by counsel argues the circuit court erred in finding it lacked jurisdiction to hear Hullett�s bond request.� In a separate pro se response brief, Hullett argues the circuit court erred in denying his motion to suppress drug evidence.

After a review of the record as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we hold there are no directly appealable issues that are arguable on their merits.� Accordingly, we dismiss Todd�s appeal and grant counsel�s petition to be relieved.¹

APPEAL DISMISSED.
